Photographer's Note
The Xávega is a gear by siege, in which one end of the network is on land, while the rest of the network is put aboard a boat that takes to the sea, freeing the network. After that, the other end is brought to ground, and pulled, formerly with the help of oxen and manual power, and currently using mechanical means.
This picture looks quite different in different monitors so I'm putting a darker version on the WS. Feedback on that would be appreciated. Thank you
Happy 2011 to all of you

Hi Paulo.
A composition teacher, really wonderful. You've captured fishermen hard at work, which makes the picture very much alive, the reflections of the sun are fantastic and the whole flock of seagulls magnified image. A great job, congratulations.
Take this opportunity to wish you a very happy New Year 2011.
Best regards.
Luis.

Wonderful composition Paulo!
it looks like a painting. I love the warm light, the reflections in the sea but also the figures of the fishermen and their net and the seagulls all around. It's both a fine photo and a very expressive one. In my monitor I see it all right, exposure is perfect IMO.
Well done and TFS,
Happy 2010 to you too,

Hi Paulo,
very impressive work. The sunset itself would be fantastic but the silhouettes of working people together with the birds make it a true art.
I like also the surface of the beach in the foreground.
I really admire the exposition here, so difficult yet masterfully done.
Beautiful, no words to give it a justice.

Olá Paulo, tudo bem? seja bem aparecido!
Sem dúvidas uma das tuas melhores fotografias dos ultimos tempos!!Silhuettas e cores muito bem trabalhadas. A composição ficou excelente com o sol muito bem posicionado quer na fotografia, quer em relação às silhuetas! Bravo l'artiste!

Dobar dan-popodne.
Ribari vade mreze praceni galebovima koji hoce da otmu po koju ribu ...
Lep pogled preko silueta ribara na galebove, uzburkano more i sunce, dobra kompozicija.
Dobar ugao snimka, lepe boje i fotografija, moje cestitke na ulovljenom trenutku.
Lep vikend.

Bom dia-tarde.

Bela vista sobre a silhueta dos pescadores nas gaivotas, mar agitado e do sol, uma boa composição.
Bom ângulo de tiro, belas cores e fotos, os meus parabéns ao momento capturado.
Bom fim de semana.

Olà Paulo,
Superb image with a composition very well balanced: sun (and its reflections) well off-centred on the left. The differents plans give too a gret depht to the image. I like too the particulary athmospher with the black silhouet of the peopels and especially of the birds.
Amizades,

Hi Paulo,
Splendid end of day image with the beautifully shilouetted workers and birds drawing the eye gracefully to the setting sun which makes a striking reflection on the rolling sea and smooth beach.

Hello Paulo,
I like this sunset picture very much. It is very aesthetic, attractive and informative. The contrast is chosen very well, allowing viewing not only the impressive silhouettes of the people and seagulls, but the nice details of the colorful foreground. A very masterful job!
Best regards,
Sergiy

Olá Paulo,
esta escena marinera, en la que los pescadores recogen sus redes después de un duro día de trabajo, está captada en toda su espontaneidad y su belleza natural.
Los colores del atardecer y el sol brillando en el cielo nos regalan una imagen muy atractiva, pero hay otros elementos muy eficaces, como los reflejos sobre el agua, las siluetas oscuras de los pescadores, y las gaviotas volando.
La composición es magnífica, y está realizada con muy buena técnica fotográfica.
Um abraço,
Josep

Bom dìa Paulo,
Beautiful capture, with all these silhouettes against the magnificent colours of the sunset !
Interesting note about the method of fishing . So they still use oxen, do they ? I thought they had all been replaced by tractors.
Agradecimiento por a partilha.
Cumprimentos.

Namaste Paulo,
it is really an excellent capture. Like the romantic colours of it. The composition is perfect keeping the sun off centred and the adding these silhouetted people and those birds in frame to add life. And yes, it is perfect in my monitor. Great shot. Tfs.
Best wishes.
